Property Management

When you appoint Garrett Whitelock you will be assigned a dedicated property manager who will get to know your property inside out in order to take active care of your asset.

We will ensure that your property complies with all the latest regulations affecting the rental market. We can organise any necessary certification that may be required, such as an Energy Performance Certificate and a Gas Safety Certificate, as well as check any potential tenants’ right to rent and ensure that your property has a licence to rent from the local council (if required), giving you complete peace of mind.

The Paperwork

When your property becomes available to rent, we will proactively find new tenants willing to pay the optimum rent as quickly as possible to minimise the risk of a void period occurring between tenancies. We will also handle all the necessary paperwork, from rigorous reference checks, preparation of new tenancy agreements, inventory checks at the beginning and end of a tenancy, deposit registration and ongoing rent collection.
